My friend, Amanda Adams, makes homemade wheat bread. She uses a live yeast starter and has taught me how to do it too. I was supposed to take a few months of just feeding my yeast baby before trying out the bread, but I just couldn't wait that long. I guess what's frustrating is that I have never been this bad at bread before! I fail every time. It's driving me crazy trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong!
It turns out I need to use wheat that is fresh (not 10 plus years old). Also, hard white wheat works better than red wheat. So many details I didn't even know. Well, I'm still failing. I think I'm going to hang out at Amanda's house to see her do it and figure out what I'm doing wrong! I'm excited to figure this out!
